Maeda, Dodgers thwarted by Thor's power

LOS ANGELES -- Noah Syndergaard became the second pitcher in club history to launch two homers in a game, powering and pitching the Mets to a 4-3 win over the Dodgers Wednesday night at Dodger Stadium.

On the mound, Syndergaard (3-2) allowed solo home runs to Corey Seager and Yasmani Grandal, but struck out six in eight innings. At the plate, Syndergaard matched Walt Terrell's 33-year-old club single-game record for home runs by a pitcher and tied the franchise mark for single-game RBIs by a pitcher with four (seven others).

Syndergaard homered to right-center leading off the third inning and blasted a three-run shot to center in the fifth inning after squaring to bunt on all previous pitches of the at-bat against Dodgers starter Kenta Maeda.
